Dear Colleagues:
The following advertisement for a faculty position was recently
published in several journals. We would like to emphasize that the
position is wide open, and that any rumors that we are specifically
looking for a senior person in the plant-pathogen area (i.e., a specific
replacement of Chris Lamb) are false. Quality of science is paramount at
the Salk Institute, and the faculty will vote for whoever does the most
exciting science.
